Smoothing strength you need ( picture no 1 ) .
2. Edit the smudge settings from brushes settings bar , sign on
Scattering , noise . ( picture no 2 )

A circle way all over the skin .

For the dark and narrow skin areas make the brush size smaller ,
In order to prevent removing face and skin details .

Smudge tool is almost the easiest fastest and more flexability in retouching photos
